Coffee is an extremely addictive substance that, despite its prevalent abuse by university students and other Dentonites, has eluded local law officials' attempts to prevent its use.
Tea is praised by the green, hippie, Asian, and weeaboo constituencies as a more humane alternative to the ravaging destructions of a coffee addiction, as it contains lower levels of the CNS stimulant 1,3,7-trimethyl-1H-purine-2,6(3H,7H)-dione. In reality it isn't much better.
Coffee is said to be the only thing linking computer scientists and hipsters (besides printed t-shirts). It is used by many students to help stay awake late at night.
